In a groundbreaking study, an international team of scientists has provided the most precise test to date of gravity's behaviour at cosmic scales, confirming Albert Einstein's century-old theory ...

In this short book, renowned theoretical physicist and author Carlo Rovelli gives a straightforward introduction to Einstein's General Relativity, our current theory of gravitation. Focusing on ...

Two Indian physicists have theoretically proposed a path-breaking idea which could fundamentally change the current view ...

Special' means ‘in certain circumstances’ – so not including the effect of gravity. It took Einstein 10 years to make the theory work for gravity too, which is how general relativity gets ...

this theory introduced brand-new ideas to science. It opened up an entire field of physics, but left Einstein with some nagging questions. The problems of gravity and acceleration would not go away.

In the zoom-in section, the underlying structure of matter in our Universe is easy to see. Their results confirm the validity of Einstein's theory of gravity, general relativity, on cosmological ...

Recent studies suggest quantum mechanics supports cosmic censorship, reinforcing black holes' role in hiding singularities.

Astrophysicist P. Ajith discusses universe expansion, combining Einstein's theory of relativity and quantum physics for ...

Research on Gravity in Line With Einstein's Theory of General Relativity Nov. 20, 2024 — Researchers used the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument to map how nearly 6 million galaxies cluster ...

On Sept. 14, 2015 astronomers “heard” two black holes crashing into each other at close to the speed of light. This discovery ...

Although Einstein’s general theory of relativity has served as a robust classical description of gravity that holds true under most circumstances, the classical theory breaks down under extreme ...
